Recording notes

From La Era de la Boludez (1993). La era de la boludez (Age of stupidity) is a studio album released in 1993 by Argentine rock band Divididos. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Gibson Les Paul Standard '60s through a Marshall 1987X 50W Plexi Reissue, the rig we use for Divididos' other songs from La Era De La Boludez, stands in. Set the amp to a medium-gain crunch and use the bridge pickup. Standard tuning.
